WELL TODAY WAS A PEACH. FIRST THING THIS MORNING, I WATCHED MY NEIGHBOR STRUGGLE CUTTING DOWN THAT PORTION OF MY TREE THAT FELL ON HIS PROPERTY. DID MY HEART GOOD.

MY WIFE DECIDED SHE WANTED TO GO TO SOUTHWEST MICHIGAN FOR THE DAY. SO WE FIRST HEADED TO SOUTH HAVEN. THERE WE HAD A NICE LUNCH, VISITED SOME OF THE STORES, AND WALKED TO LAKE MICHIGAN WHERE WE WATCHED THE GOINGS ON. AFTER A WHILE, WE HEADED TO SAUGATUCK, WHERE THE SIDEWALKS WERE WALL TO WALL PEOPLE.

WE CHECKED THE STORES OUT, SHARED AN ICE CREAM SODA ( SOMETHING WE HADN'T HAD IN YEARS) AT A SODA FOUNTAIN, THEN WENT TO THE INLET WHERE WE SAT UNDER A SHADE TREE AND WATCHED THE BOATS COMING AND GOING.

WE TOOK A SLOW RIDE HOME AND STOPPED ON THE WAY AT ONE OF OUR FAVORITE RESTAURANTS. WE SHARED A LARGE SALAD AND OVEN-FIRED PIZZA(THE BEST). IT HAD COOLED OFF SO WE ATE OUTDOORS. THEN WE CAME HOME AND TOOK A WALK AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

I WAS GOING TO SEE IF SEX WAS ON HER MIND, BUT SHE'S SNORING IN THE OTHER ROOM. I GUESS IT'S NOT A PRIORITY WITH HER TONIGHT, AND IT'S STILL HER BIRTHDAY.

OH WELL, IT WAS STILL A WONDERFUL, RELAXING DAY. NOW IF YOU WILL EXCUSE ME, I'M GOING TO WAKE HER UP.
